The Ari's Text

All these are the twenty-two letters of the Torah. The seven letters are vessels to ZON, which are seven kings, and fifteen letters are vessels to AVI, because the posterior of AVI are greater than any ZON. The sign of the number of letters, vessels of AVI, is fifteen, like the number YH [fifteen]. Also, it is known that AVI are the first two letters YH of HaVaYaH. The letters of ZON are SATNZ GTz [Shin-Ayin-Tet-Nun-Zayin Gimel-Tzadik], and the other fifteen letters of the alphabet are in AVI. Six letters of them are BDK HYH [Bet-Dalet-Kof Het-Yod-Hey], mentioned in the The Book of Zohar of his manuscript, which are the posterior of AVI, and the rest of the letters are anterior to AVI.
